I didn't say it's ineffective... I said it's a relatively ineffective way to provide harmonic damping / balancing. Which is true. Unless you always have the clutch disengaged.

It is effective at several other things, which, I believe, are the reasons Porsche (and several other manufacturers) have been and continue to use them. I do not believe that the harmonic damping is the driving cause for the use of a dual-mass flywheel for any of the manufacturers or road-going automobiles.
